Tucked just off Penn Avenue in the heart of Bloomfield, this home sits in one of those rare Pittsburgh pockets where everything comes together -- walkable streets, neighborhood energy, hospitals, dining, and true city convenience. Children's Hospital, Liberty Avenue, coffee shops, bakeries, and the business district are all just steps away, yet the setting still feels comfortably residential. It's the kind of location locals quietly hope for -- and rarely find.
From the street, the stone facade offers classic Bloomfield charm. Step inside and the story changes quickly: this home is far larger and more versatile than it appears. Generously scaled rooms, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a layout designed for real living create a first floor that feels both open and inviting. The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all impressively sized -- a refreshing surprise in the city.
The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and storage, then opens naturally to one of this home's most distinctive features: a beautifully tiled, covered L-shaped porch that feels like a true extension of the living space. Morning coffee, evening dinners, Steelers Sundays, and summer gatherings all find their place here -- with easy access to the backyard and the detached two-car garage, a rare and highly sought-after city amenity. Storage above the garage adds even more flexibility.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom is filled with natural light and features two large built-in closets, while a second bedroom and full bath complete the level. The third floor offers an additional private bedroom -- ideal for guests, creative space, or a quiet retreat tucked above the city.
And then there's the lower level -- a true Pittsburgh bonus. With its own living area and office, full kitchen, full bath, laundry, storage, and direct backyard access, it functions beautifully as a private apartment-style suite. Perfect for extended family, guests, work-from-home living, or multi-generational flexibility, it adds a layer of versatility rarely found in Bloomfield homes.
Between the prime location, oversized rooms, covered porch, two-car garage, and multi-level living, this is a home that delivers space, character, and adaptability -- all in one of Pittsburgh's most beloved neighborhoods.
